About Nico

Meet Nico! This handsome 3-year-old Cattle Dog mix is a true gem ready to find his forever home. Nico is house-trained and kennel-trained, knows his basic commands, and walks beautifully on a leash. He enjoys a good game of tug-of-war and gets along great with other dogs, making him an ideal companion for active households. As a herding breed, Nico can be a bit nippy when excited, so he’s best suited for homes without small children. He is already neutered and up to date on all vaccinations, and he comes with his very own dog beds, blankets, indestructible toys, and kennel—everything you need to help him feel right at home. Nico has a $300 adoption fee that covers his spay, vaccines, microchip, and transport fee to several states including CT, MD, NJ, NY, PA, VA, GA, and TN. If you're interested in welcoming Nico into your life, please fill out the adoption application. He's eager to become your loyal, playful best friend! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
